other topic shows resolved at my end, so I didn’t think it proper protocol to post there!
I have done numerous searches, and have tried a few. I am using this snippet on other sites and it works well, just seems to hang up when I use it on this one. Which is leading me to believe it has something to do with a glitch with the login/logout function of UserWP. When snippet is added, and I go to login via the login link (menu), I cannot login, just redirects me to home page.
thanks!
